When:the appetite fails and sleep grows
restless and unrefreshing, there is trouble
ahead. The digestive organs, when
healthy, crave food, the nervous system,
when vigorous and tranquil, gives its pos
SCISSOR no uneasiness at night. A tonic to
be effective should not be a mere appeti-
ger, nor are the nerves to be strengthened
and soothed by the unaided action of a
sedative or a narcotic. What is required
is a medicine which ~invigorates the sto-
mach and promotes assimilation of food
by the system, by which means the ner-
vous system as well as other parts of
the physical organism are strengthened.
These are the effects of Hostetter's Sto-
mach Bitters, u medicine whose reputa-
ton is founded firmly in public confidence,
and which physicians commend for its
tonic, anti-bilious and other properties. 1t
is used with the best results in fever and
ague, rheumatism, kidney and uterine
weakness and other maladies.

from the Retail Butchers Protective AS
ISOLATION, of Brooklyn. was read denying
that they were responsible for the high
price of beef, and declaring their ~associa-
ton desired to act in harmony with the
Range Association.
Mr.. j. j. GiAan, OF Cleveland. WINS
called for and read a short address on the
monopolies Of the stock yard concerns,
and middle men, in which he laid the
trouble of cattle growers in not receiving
Just prices for their cattle at the doors of
these middlemen. His plan for meeting
these monopolies was the organization of
an immense corporation with a capital OF
a hundred millions, to be participated in
by all the stock raisers of the United
States, which should market and butcher
all the stock raised in the United States,
and conduct the selling of all beef direct
to The explanation of his
scheme was listened to with marked at
%tcntion, and at the close was marked by
warm applause. The afternoon was &C.
cupied in revising the constitution and by
laws of the association.

The Agricultural Convention.

NEW YORK, Feb. 9.-At the agricul-
tural convention. to-day, a resolution was
adopted approving the organization OF the
National Agricultural Association, greet
ing it as a co-worker in American indus
tries, and urging congress to pass the
bill before it, to check the manufacture of
spurious wines. Another resolution re-
questing congress to act favorably upon
the bill creating the department of agri-
culture and labor was adopted. A reso-
luton was introduced setting forth that
Gen. Hatch. of Missouri, was the unani-
nous choice Of the association for appoint
ment as secretary of agriculture and labor.
This provoked some discussion and it was
the sentiment of the convention that such
an action would be premature, The reso-
luton was withdrawn. By another reso-
luton the association pledges itself to CO.
operate with the National Pure Food
Association in securing the passage of the
food adulturation bill, at present before

New York, Feb. Except for the
number Of 'longshoremen standing idle at
corners of streets along the river front,
matters have assumed almost their nor

for Murray and the road Law, but do not
think the Commissioners did US exactly
right in not appointing all Overseer on our

four days on it by the first of May. They
have just appointed an Oyerseer for
our section, and then put out orders to
work in May or risk the law. If we had
been busy in our crops some of us would
have risked it, for we do not believe there
is any law to force man who is willing to
do his duty at the right time to leave bis
crop at this time of the year to work the
roads, just because some other man failed
to do his duty.

Death of 8. B. Trescot.

The Charlotte N. c. Chronicle of Sunday
prints the following notice of the death of
8. B. Trescot, who was ason of Hon. VIM.
Henry Trescot, of Washington, ID. c.:
Mr.. s. B. Trescot, who has been employ
ed as draughtsrnan at the Mecklenburg
Iron Works in this city, dropped dead
while at work in his Office yesterday after
noon about three o'clock. He was alone
in the Office at the time. and no one knew
that there was anything wrong with him
until Mr.. Frank Wilkes entered the Office
and found Mr.. Irescot lying lifeless on the
floor by the table, upon which was spread
his paper and drawing instruments. Mr..
Wilkes. thinking that probably Mr.. Trescot
had only swoonad, telephoned for physi-
clan, and DR.. BrGtton was quickly upon the
spot. Dr.. Bratton at once pronounced Mr..
Trescot deed, and the body was carried to
the late home of the deceased, corner of
Graham and Tryon streets, where desc
late wife and two children awaited 1t. His
death was caused by heart disease. Mr..
Trescot was native of Pendleton, 8. c.,
but came here from Washington city. he
was an excellent gentleman, and was held
in high esteem by all who had made his
acquaintance. The sincere sympathy of

Lebanon Items,

The measles have somewhat subsidized,
but not without sad effects.
The community was saddened on Mon
day, the 9th inst, by the death of little
Hattie, daughter Of Mr.. M. B. Richard
son, and also on Friday, the 18th inst, by
the death of Miss Katie Wilson, daughter
of Mr.. VIM. Wilson. Miss Katie was
just in the bloom Of life, having passed
fifteen summers, when the angel of death
called for her spirit. She had been going
to school at Lebanon until about the time
of her illness, which was some two weeks
before her death she also attended the
Sunday School regularly. Although she
was not member of any Church, yet
before her death she expressed devout
hope in Christ, saying just before her
death, 81 know that Jesus will save me-"
Her last words were, Farewell, mother,
farewell, father, I am going home" Her
coffin was laden with flowers brought by
her many friends and relatives who came
to see the last of their departed friend.
After appropriate and very touching
funeral services conducted by Rev. ]. s.
Murray, her remains were inferred on
Saturday in the Lebanon cemetery, amidst
the tears and sobs Of almost every one
present. Her death was lamented by the
whole Sunday School, which, after sing
Ing hymns, expressed their feelings Of
respect for the departed one in resolutions
of sympathy and sorrow which were
unanimously adopted.
Several other cases of sickness exist in
the neighborhood, but we are glad to say
to their friends that all are convalescing.
On last Tuesday, the 10th inst, a.crowd
Of neighbor men went to work out the
crop of Mr.. Robinson, whose wife has
been sick for several weeks past, and
whose crop began to need work from the
lack of his inability to attend to it. That
evening Mrs. Brock, wife of Mr.. Reuben
Brock, while riding horse to see Mrs,
Robinson, was thrown off, and in the fall
received painful injuries. A physician
was summoned and We hope she will soon
be over the effects of the fall.
A little hail fell the other day; but it
did no damage, except that some of the
farmers were considerably scared, think
ing that hail storm was coming.
Mr.. T. II. Garrett, who has been teach
ing at Liberty Springs this year, is, since
his vacation. going to school OF Lebanon.
He seems to be in dead earnest about an
education, for he walks four miles to
school.
The Lebanon Church is now being
painted, which will probably be finished
in two or three weeks. DEMOS.
